A widower, Hans (90), is forced into a repressive old-age-home. Once there, he comes face to face with the draconian management, who forces him to become a rebel and activist, a 90-year-old-man who has nothing to lose by revolting. An anti-ageism revolution about growing old on your own terms.
Based on ‘Hans steek die Rubicon oor’ (Novel) by Rudie van Rensburg.
